$Id$
Public domain. Release engineering for TeX Live, that is,
notes on putting together the pretest and yearly release.
See ./packages.txt for info on regular updates, adding/removing platforms, etc.
Coordinate/announce schedule with:
maintainers of: engines, LaTeX, GUST font, asymptote, context, texworks
other parts of collection: protext, ctan, mactex.
general lists
Check if pretest mirrors need renewing, talk to mirror admins if so:
https://tug.org/texlive/mirmon/
/home/httpd/html/texlive/mirmon/tlpretest-mirrors.txt
To stop updating of certain packages before the general freeze:
tlpkg/dev/tlnet-disabled-packages.txt
To run test builds (if developing infrastructure changes) without
affecting production dirs, see:
tlpkg/bin/tltestnet
Part I. Preparation; can/should be done before pretest starts.
1. doc: write updates for pretest.html, but leave commented out until start.
- check NEWS/CHANGES/etc. files for all engines and major programs;
ask developers as needed.
- diff new and old bindirs to see if there are interesting new programs:
\ls /usr/local/texlive-rel/bin/x86_64-linux >/tmp/now
\ls $ib >/tmp/new
comm -3 /tmp/now /tmp/new >/tmp/bd
- in general, writing these news items takes considerable time, but
it's important, because this summary of changes is what users want to know.
- if new kpathsea file types (kpsewhich --help-formats), update kpathsea.texi.
- see also doc item below for more necessary updates after pretest starts.
2. Ask tldistro for patches.
2. No /dev suffix: Build/source/{version.ac,texk/{kpathsea,ptexenc}/version.ac
3. Check/update copyright years: *.pm, tlmgr*, install-tl, tlpkg/installer
4. Check for upstream releases: {libs,texk,utils}/README
5. When finalizing sources (any time in the new year, can be early,
before initial builds in any case),
update version numbers, years, copyright years,
and/or remove /dev suffix in
(if not already done, of course; don't double-increment)
(and write ChangeLog entries):
top level version.ac
dvipdfm-x:configure.ac dvipdfmx.c xbb.c
dvipsk: configure.ac NEWS dvips.c dvips.h afm2tfm.c dvips.texi
mendexk,
upmendex: COPYRIGHT main.c
kpathsea: version.ac NEWS kpsewhich.c doc/kpathsea.texi texmf.cnf
ptexenc: version.ac
web2c: NEWS doc/web2c.texi
mplibdir/mp.w
ptexdir/ptex-base.ch,ptex_version.h
pdftexdir/pdftex.web pdftexdir/pdftex_version.h
xetexdir/xetex.web xetexdir/xetex_version.h
lib/printversion.c
check *.c *.h sources in above for needed copyright year updates too.
check tlpkg/dev/srclist.txt for automake major version update.
then reautoconf (~4min), rebuild (~25min).
install-tl, tlmgr.pl (copyright only)
run ~karl/bin/tlversions to see+compare engine/etc. versions
commit updates.
6. During the pretest, we want to keep updating tlnet. But we cannot do
that from the trunk, since the trunk will have the new binaries and
other changes. Therefore, we set up a branch for release YYYY where we
will continue to commit normal package updates and update tlnet, while
the trunk is updating tlpretest for YYYY+1.
The branch must be created right before the first pretest-specific
commit (which is the next item, in Part II). Ensure *.pm are updated in
Build/source first.
cd /home/texlive/branch
rm -rf * .[^.]* # be sure .svn et al. are gone
rev=62180 # for 2022 (svn info in trunk)
tlyear=`date +%Y -d "last year"`; echo $tlyear # previous release
umask 022 # keep TL files non-group-writable
branch=branch$tlyear.final
svn copy -r $rev \
-m"$branch branch based on r$rev" \
svn://tug.org/texlive/trunk svn://tug.org/texlive/branches/$branch
# make working checkout:
svn co svn://tug.org/texlive/branches/$branch . >&out # ~45min
Do not create it earlier and merge from trunk, because then all the
packages which got updated in the meantime, and have been updated in
tlnet, will get new revision numbers (from the commit after the merge)
and get updated again.
Part II. Building pretest from trunk (and tlnet from branch).
0. Ensure that /home/texlive/branch from before last pretest-specific
commit is created, clean, and up to date: see item 6 just above.
0b. In crontab, comment out "update tlnet from trunk" entry.
1. When ready to start building tlpretest: on trunk, set
option adjustrepo 0
in tl-update-tlnet since pretest users shouldn't go to CTAN for updates.
This change should not go to the branch.
1b. Set up tlpretest:
Update /home/ftp/texlive/tlpretest/README.md.
Empty tlpretest except for that README and 00_TIME.txt (used for mirmon).
2. Prepare for pretest in cron.tl:
uncomment "# enable check during pretest" block.
critical=--critical # tlcritical needed for new release version
catalogue_compare=false # avoid for initial test, will set below
net_frozen=true # stay local for now, no update of tlpretest
First build happens below, after many more changes; don't start it yet.
4. After setting up for pretest (not before), basic updates for release year:
Master/.mkisofsrc
Master/release-texlive.txt
Master/tlpkg/TeXLive/TLConfig.pm -- $ReleaseYear and think about $MinRelease
Master/tlpkg/TeXLive/TLUtils.pm -- $mactex_darwin and -darwin strings
Master/tlpkg/bin/tl-update-images
Master/tlpkg/bin/tl-update-messages
Master/tlpkg/bin/tl-update-tlnet
Master/texmf-dist/web2c/texmfcnf.lua
Master/texmf-dist/web2c/texmf.cnf # from Build/.../kpathsea
(also ensure that the Build and Master texmf.cnf files are in sync)
5. Ensure version numbers in sources are updated; see list above.
Then install new binaries with tl-update-bindir. Ask tlbuild.
Add new executables to appropriate .tlpsrc files (likewise removals).
(svn status bin/x86_64-linux | grep '^[^M]')
Add any man pages for the new executables (from Build/source/inst/...)
Add new scripts to linked_scripts if not already handled.
6. Run tex \\end to check that dynamic mktexfmt works.
Ensure that web2c/texmf.cnf is updated for the current year (per above).
6a. Then run fmtutil-user --all to check that all formats build ok.
6b. (For karl@tug.org: leave new ~karl/.texlive`date +%Y` for bnb,
and update ~bnb/.cshrc after commit.)
7. Check for Build-maintained updates to config files, new files, etc.
(might have to merge back if Master was mistakenly updated):
diff -ru0 --exclude=man --exclude=info \
Build/source/inst/texmf-dist Master/texmf-dist
8. Now, finally, try a first update of tlpretest:
env force_rebuild=true ~karl/bin/cron.pretest # ~15min
This will fail because the pretest dir is not yet set up, but
that's ok; the idea is to check the output and ensure all is basically ok.
The complaints about unknown "svn status output line"s are ok.
It's likely that .tlpsrc files will need to be adjusted for new binaries.
8a. svn commit all the above.
9. After a trial build goes ok, set up tlpretest:
cd /home/ftp/texlive/tlpretest
cp -ar ../tlnet/[a-u]* . # omit tlnet/README*
env force_rebuild=true cron.pretest # update repository
We use cp -a because we want to start with exactly the last tlnet,
and not recreate all packages, so that a file with a given name is never
rewritten. See recreate comments in tl-update-tlpdb and tl-update-containers.
9b. Sanity check: Do an installation as a normal user from the new
tlpretest, and keep this installation updated daily as normal users do,
that is, with tlmgr update --self --all.
9c. Update other automatically-built binary sets, and ask tlbuild to
build all (including asymptote).
9d. In 2020, as a special case, after a first successful build, this was run:
tl-fix-container-links
In order to make all the archive/*.tar.xz files into versioned symlinks,
so a given tarball will not be regenerated unless the content changes.
This was a one-time event, but left here as an example for the unknown future.
10. As of 2021, we want to keep updating tlnet from the new branch, as
described in item I.6. For safety, let's do a trial build from the new
branch to a temporary destination, say /home/texlive/tmp, before
updating the real tlnet. Initialize the tmp dir as above with
tlpretest, item 9):
cd /home/texlive/tmp
rm -rf *
cp -ar ~ftp/texlive/tlnet/[a-u]* . # omit tlnet/README*
10a. Edit ~karl/bin/cron.tl:
- use /home/texlive/tmp instead of $ftp/tlnet for tlnet_dir;
- add --testlocation=/home/texlive/trial to the tl-update-tlnet invocation.
10b. To do the test branch build:
env force_rebuild=true cron.branch
Assuming it goes ok, then undo the edits.
There will be no linked_scripts dir (no build done), but that's ok;
we won't be installing binaries from a build.
11. In cron.tl, set critical= , net_frozen=false, and
return to regular catalogue_compare=true updates.
In the crontab, enable the pretest entries.
12. Life and daily updates resume: run c2l to update trunk->tlpretest,
c2b to update branch->tlnet. Of course, don't update the branch if a
particular package requires the new binaries, e.g., asymptote.
13. Announce: make new pretest.html live; mention pretest has started
on texlive/index.html and tug's home page (at least).
Email tex-live@tug.org.
A. At some point during the pretest:
Update gpg expiration, see tlpkg/gpg/tl-key-extension.txt;
do not fail to do this, or the key will expire and cause lots of hassle.
Run tl-update-linked-scripts to ensure consistency.
In Master/tlpkg, update bundled Windows programs as needed:
dviout texworks tlgs tlperl tlpsv
In tlpkg/installer, update xz lz4 wget if needed (+ Master/source).
Update readme-html.dir/readme.en.html if needed,
run tlpkg/bin/htmltext to create readme-txt.dir/README.EN.
B. Specifics for tlperl update:
cd $pg
find tlperl -type f | \grep -v README.TEXLIVE | sort >/tmp/now
zipinfo -1 newperl.zip | \grep -v /\$ | sort >/tmp/new
unzip -q newperl.zip # replace All files
comm -13 /tmp/now /tmp/new >/tmp/c2
comm -23 /tmp/now /tmp/new >/tmp/c1
wc -l /tmp/c1 /tmp/c2 # should be about 100-200, not 1500+
svn rm `cat /tmp/c1`
svn add --parents --no-auto-props `cat /tmp/c2`
svn status | fgrep \? # shouldn't be any besides newperl.zip
find tlperl -name \*.dll -o -name \*.exe | xargs svn propset svn:executable 1
find tlperl -type d -empty | xargs svn rm # repeat until no output
update tlperl/README.TEXLIVE
svn commit when ready ...
C. Build a test ISO image for initial TeX Collection testing:
In tl-update-images, ensure V= the new YYYY and target=/.../test
env images_frozen=false cron.pretest
After successful image build, update /home/ftp/texlive/Images/test/README
and email tldistro@tug.org for info/review.
Can disable image building again after the initial build for a while.
M. As pretest proceeds, update the doc:
MetaPost (in texmf-dist), other engine (in source) NEWS.
Ensure all engine manuals updated in texmf-dist.
Update texlive-en.tex (+ .pdf, .html), tell tldoc to translate.
Update year numbers by one,
example text menus and GUI screenshots,
write news section,
update "Builders of the binaries" and "Translators of this manual",
any new people to thank,
and changes throughout if behavior has changed.
Update tlbuild.texi text, then
W=.../Build/source/Work
make -C $W/doc script-links tlbuild-incl.texi readme-files readme-install
cd .../Build/source
Consider updates of core man pages in Build/source/texk/web2c/man.
Remake updmap,fmtutil man pages with help2man:
tm=.../Master
make -C $W/texk/texlive/tl_support xupdmap.1 xfmtutil.1
x1=`(unset CDPATH; cd $Master/texmf-dist/doc/man/man1; pwd)`
They must be moved from /tmp into Master by hand:
mv /tmp/xupdmap.1 $x1/updmap.1
mv /tmp/xfmtutil.1 $x1/fmtutil.1
Also update them in ~www/texlive/doc/*.html:
groff -mandoc -Thtml $x1/updmap.1 >$lw/doc/updmap.html
groff -mandoc -Thtml $x1/fmtutil.1 >$lw/doc/fmtutil.html
While we're here, let's update the other generated html files:
pod2html --cachedir=/tmp $xx/tlmgr.pl >$lw/doc/tlmgr.html
pod2html --cachedir=/tmp $tm/install-tl >$lw/doc/install-tl.html
Update copies in the Master tree (also done nightly in tl-update-auto):
cp $lw/doc/{tlmgr,install-tl}.html $tm/texmf-dist/doc/texlive
Man pages from Build to Master (after doing a build):
tl-update-man # consider removals from output, if any binaries are gone
# check /tmp/so.rules against man1/Makefile, update if needed.
cd $x1/..
make # remakes pdfs
# files to add:
svn status . | sed -n 's/^\?//p'
svn add `!!`
Texinfo manuals from Build to Master:
tl-update-txi
Don't forget to commit everything (texmf-dist/doc, Build/source, ...).
N. Really test during, and at end, of pretest that
(really! don't leave it for post-release failure)
.fmt's sharable are across endian/word-different platforms,
including luatex:
tlpkg/bin/tl-check-fmtshare RHOST:RDIR
where RHOST is a host you can ssh to with different specifications
than the local host, and RDIR is a TL:Build/source/Work/texk/web2c/
build directory. (Must build TL there first before running, naturally.)
Nelson Beebe has a wide variety of hosts available.
O. Test that basic interactive Metafont is still working:
mf '\drawdot (50,50); showit;' % and from * prompt
W. Two days before the final pretest (i.e., to-be-published) build:
Put date into NEWS and ChangeLog files above.
Update Build/source/tardate.ac && reautoconf.
tlmgr version number in texmf-dist/scripts/texlive/NEWS.
In cron.tl, force catalogue_compare=true for final syncs.
Run make distclean in Build/source/utils/asymptote
to aviod that build junk ending up in the source tarball.
Reenable images_frozen=false so we get the new sources,
or can run tl-update-images --tar-source-only
and --tar-devsource-only to just build the necessary tarballs
for Master/source if you don't want to do a whole build.
Tell developers no more commits: tldev +
hirata, hironori, luigi, mojca, takuji,
X. The day before the final pretest:
In cron.tl, catalogue_compare=false to avoid skew.
In tl-update-tlnet, option adjustrepo 1, else install-tl-unx won't go to ctan
Update Master/source (if not earlier):
xz wget w32tex-src texlive*source mactexdoc install-tl-unx.tar.gz
Y. The day of the final tlnet-from-branch build, which may or may not
also be the day of the final tlpretest-from-trunk build:
Set frozen=>1 in branch TLConfig.pm.
Freeze of tlnet should happen at that night's rebuild.
Z. After final build, to do total freeze:
In cron.tl, set *_frozen=true.
Also, set catalogue_compare=false now or at some point earlier.
For double protection, disable the nightly cron jobs.
Also, in /l/bin/mirror-ctan, disable Catalogue updates,
to avoid unnecessary changes if we have to rebuild the final image.
Z0. Ask for torrents to be created. In 2021,
Tim Stewart <timoteostewart1977@gmail.com>
made the one that worked.
Z1. Preserve Catalogue as of the freeze, for the sake of
post-freeze updates:

If such post-freeze updates are required (let's hope not),
see tlpkg/archive/tlnet-by-hand.txt.
Part III. Making the big release:
- unmount live install of last year's:
umount /home/ftp/texlive/Contents/live
hx=/home/ftp/historic/systems/texlive
prev=`date -d "last year" +%Y`; echo $prev
this=`date +%Y`; echo $this
mkdir $hx/$this
chgrp texlive !$
chmod g+ws !$
cd /home/ftp/texlive/Images
cp README.md $hx/$prev/
mv -v *.iso* *.torrent* $hx/$prev/
mv -v test/texlive*.iso* .
mv -v test/texlive*.tar.xz* $hx/$this/ # tar version only in historic
update README.md (touch even if no real changes needed)
and test/README (pretest over)
- mactex (from tlpretest)
hm=/home/ftp/historic/systems/mactex
mkdir $hm/$prev/
cd ~ftp/tex/mactex
chgrp mactex *; chmod g+w *
mv -v *.pkg* $hm/$prev
mv -v ~ftp/texlive/tlpretest/mactex*pkg* .
ln -sv mactex-20*.pkg MacTeX.pkg
ln -sv mactex-basic*.pkg BasicTeX.pkg
ln -sv mactex-ghost*.pkg Ghostscript.pkg
for p in [BGM]*.pkg; do md5sum $p >$p.md5; done & # used on mactex web pages
edit README
chgrp mactex *; chmod g+w *
mkdir $hm/$this/
cp -v Extras*.pdf MacTeXtras-*.zip $hm/$this
- move rest of tlnet to historic, as tlnet-final:
We keep updating the $prev release while doing the pretest for $this,
so moving the current tlnet is what's needed:
mkdir $hx/$prev/tlnet-final
chgrp texlive !$
chmod g+s !$
cd /home/ftp/texlive/tlnet
mv [a-z]* $hx/$prev/tlnet-final
- move tlpretest to tlnet, to make the release
mv ../tlpretest/[a-z]* .
update README.md (touch even if no real changes needed)
and ../tlpretest/README.md (pretest over)
cp install-tl-unx.tar.gz install-tl.zip $hx/$this/
touch TEXLIVE_$this # empty file to signal new version
- Source directory for CTAN:
fx=/home/ftp/tex
ls $fx/texlive/Source/* # ensure last year's sources
rm -f !$
cp -av $tm/source/{install-tl,texlive-,w32tex-}*z $fx/texlive/Source/
cp -av $tm/source/{install-tl,texlive,w32tex}*README $fx/texlive/Source/
- historic copy of TL web pages:
cd /home/httpd/html/texlive
mkdir $hx/$prev/web/
cp *.html !$ # disable header.html include in bugs.html
- copy full (unpruned) tlpdb to historic:
# the pre-pruned tlpdb directory is created by tl-update-images.
preprune=/home/ftp/texlive/Images/test/preprune-tlpdb
ls -l $preprune # ensure tlpdb and xz and checksums
tgz=/tmp/texlive-${this}0325-tlpdb-full.tar.gz # release date, not today's
(cd $preprune && tar cvzf $tgz texlive.tlpdb texlive.tlpdb.*5*)
mv $tgz $hx/$this/
rm -rf $preprune
- update local CTAN area, just to avoid mirroring everything back again:
cy=/home/ftp/tex-archive/systems
rm -rf $cy/texlive/tlnet/*; cp -ar * $cy/texlive/tlnet/
rm $cy/texlive/Images/*; cp -a ../Images/*.* $cy/texlive/Images/
rm $cy/texlive/Source/*; cp -a $tm/source/{install-tl,texlive-,w32tex-}*z $cy/texlive/Source/
rm $cy/mac/mactex/*; cp -a $fx/mactex/* $cy/mac/mactex/
- tug.org stuff:
change fstab
mount /mnt/tl
cd /mnt/tl
TEXLIVE_INSTALL_NO_WELCOME=1; export TEXLIVE_INSTALL_NO_WELCOME
echo i | time nice -19 perl install-tl # do full install to default location.
# takes about 30min
rm /usr/local/texlive-rel; ln -s texlive/$this /usr/local/texlive-rel
ls !$
newsrc=!$/source
mkdir $newsrc
chgrp texlive !$; chmod g+ws !$
cp -v source/{install-tl,texlive,w32tex}*.tar.?z $newsrc
ls -l !$
mount /home/ftp/texlive/Contents/live
cd
umount /mnt/tl
update ~www/texlive web pages (search for $prev and $prev-1):
acquire* - general
bugs.html - news from pretest.html, also case of $prevprev at bottom
build.html - platform list
custom-bin.html - remove any old, add any new
doc.html - platform list, translation list
pretest.html - done for this year, transfer bugs and news
quickinstall.html - paths
upgrade.html - whether possible or not
tlmgr-news.html - from texmf-dist/scripts/texlive/NEWS
index.html - dates
check for new Texinfo manuals to link to html versions, and if any,
make a new link in:
~www/texinfohtml/
- update historic/systems with final proTeXt, when ready.
https://bscw.fernuni-hagen.de
ftp://ftp.fernuni-hagen.de/pub/windows/win32/ProTeXt/
~www/protext/index.html
- announcements:
CTAN @ ISO update: remove old version, re-enable tlnet mirroring, MacTeX.
Dick @ updating MacTeX web pages.
Siep @ windows.html, Norbert @ debian,updmap-kanji.html.
pdftex maintainers @ updating pdftex sources with sync-pdftex.sh + tag.
tex-live, tldistro @ release made.
- make tag + branch:
Before: Determine revision number from svn log
or https://tug.org/pipermail/tex-live-commits/
in case commits were mistakenly made.
Also: look at https://tug.org/svn/texlive/tags/ to get subnum
and https://tug.org/svn/texlive/branches/ to avoid duplication.
rev=58693
subnum=1 # increase as necessary if multiple branches needed
tlyear=`date +%Y`; echo $tlyear # maybe previous year during pretest, as above
svn copy -r $rev \
-m"texlive-$tlyear.$subnum tag based on r$rev" \
svn://tug.org/texlive/trunk \
svn://tug.org/texlive/tags/texlive-$tlyear.$subnum
#
svn copy -r $rev \
-m"branch$tlyear branch based on r$rev" \
svn://tug.org/texlive/trunk \
svn://tug.org/texlive/branches/branch$tlyear[.$subnum]
# add .$subnum to branch name (and in comment) if not making the first.
It's the same command, just different destinations.
http://svnbook.red-bean.com/en/1.8/svn.branchmerge.html
We do both a branch and a tag so that it's possible to easily compare
the current state of the branch with its starting point (the tag).
To check out the branch, for critical source fixes for the sake of
during-the-year rebuilds or for the distros, if they request it:
this=`date +%Y`; echo $this # whatever year is appropriate
cd /home/texlive
rm -rf branch # when starting a new year on tug
mkdir branch
cd branch
svn co svn://tug.org/texlive/branches/branch$this/Build/source . >&out
Edit (inside the branch) as desired.
Do a test build, commit when successful.
Ask for rebuilds,
When (enough) rebuilds are done, commit to the branch and make another tag:
brev=nnnnn # branch commit revision, e.g., 51236
btag=yyyy.n # next branch tag, e.g., 2021.3
#svn copy -r $brev -m"texlive-$btag tag based on r$brev, with <whatever> fix" \
# svn://tug.org/texlive/branches/branch2021 \
# svn://tug.org/texlive/tags/texlive-$btag
(Using urls makes for an immediate commit, which is what we want.)
By the way, in the event of a mistaken delete, the material is best
recovered with, where 57911 is the good revision to restore from:
svn merge -r HEAD:57911 .
so as to keep the version history, which retrieving the files and
re-adding would not do. (But renamed files are not handled, it seems.)
- update ~karl/bin/cron.tl, be sure cron.pretest and cron.branch are disabled,
and reenable cron.trunk when feel ready:
critical=
images_frozen=true
net_frozen=false
all_frozen=false
catalogue_compare=true intermittently
after TC release:
- texcollection
hy=/home/ftp/historic/systems
mkdir -p $hy/texcollection/$this/packaging
#
# copy files from DVD:
mount /mnt/tc
cd /mnt/tc # check that it's the current release
cp -pR [A-T]* index* setup /home/ftp/historic/systems/texcollection/$this
#
# copy ctan snapshot for TUG members:
du -h ~www/members/ctan*20*.tar # just to compare
mkdir $hy/ctancd/$prev
mv ~www/members/ctan*20*.tar !$
ls -lt ctan/ | head # note date of last update
nice -19 tar cf ~www/members/ctan`date +%y`-0410.tar ctan # update date!
chmod a=r ~www/members/ctan*.tar
ls -l !$; du -h !$
# edit members/index.html

ln -v ~www/members/ctan*.tar !$
#
cd && umount /mnt/tc
#
cd $hy/$this/packaging
# copy in files from texcollection svn:
svn -q update ~/src/texcollection/
cp -p ~/src/texcollection/$this/packaging/* .
#
# make small image for web page:
